The Untold Story

Behind the scenes story

The beginning of the production Immediately after arriving at Kurima Island from Taipei, we conducted a site inspection, and began laying the foundation and drafting the plans the following day. The wall that will become the setting for "Blessing" began to take shape gradually.

Support for the island During the production period, warm offerings arrived daily from the people of the island, and through the translator, a deep bond was formed between Nene from the cafeteria "Hanfu."

The moment of completion On the day of the completion, a bouquet of flowers was presented by the district governor, and the entire island was in a celebratory mood, receiving press coverage. It became a special work of art for the two who exchanged tearful farewells and vowed to return "surely."
